A Friendship That Crossed Borders

Some friendships are loud and obvious. Others are quiet, rare, and so genuine that you only realize their value when life tests you. This is about one of those rare friendships. She came all the way from Indonesia to Singapore just to see me and that alone says more than a thousand words ever could. In a world where people are always busy, always rushing, always distracted, finding someone who makes time for you feels almost unreal. Genuine friendship is hard to find. The kind that lasts forever is even harder. Most people don’t have time to listen. They hear you, but they don’t listen. But she listens, always. With patience. With care. Without judgment. Most people don’t want to help. They step back when things get hard. But she steps forward every single time. Helping not because she has to, but because she genuinely wants to. She is one of the kindest people I know. I once said that I have a wall around my life, a wall that protects me and keeps people at a distance. Not many can...

Respect Matters


Your thoughts are flying with what went wrong in your previous relationship even though love has always been there from the beginning. But what happened that suddenly everything was gone? 

RESPECT that matters most suddenly collapse without you knowing it.

Respect is the highest way to express your feelings for your partner. It's a silent way of communication that builds a strong foundation between two people. Without it, wildness just like a beast is the only thing left. Then the result is feeling degraded and the only thing remaining is just a physical appearances.

Here are some advise where you can show respect to your partner:
1.      Always listen attentively whenever your partner is talking.
2.      Show appreciation in any simple way you know.
3.       Don’t let your humour turn to hurting her/his feelings.
4.      Never violate the privacy of one another.
5.       Don’t criticize.
6.      Talk directly to your partner rather than talking to others.
7.      Both your opinions matter.
8.      Be quick in saying “Please forgive me.”
9.      Be supportive with your partner’s choices.
10.  Don’t embarrass your partner to others but always be proud with her/him.

RESPECT matters, without it everything is nothing.

True Friendship Is Tested by Distance, Silence, and Time — Yet Still It Stands

Friendship is one of the most beautiful things in life. It’s not just about having fun together or talking every day. It’s about being there for each other, even when life gets busy or hard. Some friendships are easy when everything is going well. But real friendship gets tested. It’s tested by distance, by silence, and by time. And the ones that survive these quiet tests are truly special. Sometimes, we move to new cities or take different paths. We don’t see our friends as often as we used to. But true friendship doesn’t depend on being close every day. It’s about feeling close, even when we’re far apart. One message, one memory, or one call can remind us how strong the bond still is. Life also brings silence. We don’t always have time to talk. We get busy. But silence doesn’t always mean distance. With true friends, even after long gaps, we can pick up right where we left off. There’s no pressure to explain — just an unspoken understanding that we’re still here for each other. T...

He Sees It All: A Message of Hope for the Hurting

Life did not always go the way I hoped. I wanted to rise, to do better, to give my family a good life. But no matter how hard I worked, there were times when people tried to pull me down. They questioned my efforts, doubted my intentions, or simply refused to support me. I kept asking myself why they could not just let me try. I was not trying to prove anything to the world. I only wanted to grow for myself, for my son, and for the people I love. Still, I often felt unseen. Like my efforts did not matter. I would smile in front of others and act like I had it all together, but behind closed doors, I cried. I did not always have the words for what I was feeling. I only had prayers. Quiet ones. Honest ones. And deep in my heart, I kept asking, God, please see me. Please help me. And He did. There are days when the weight feels too much. I still show up. I still give my best. But deep inside, I get tired. Not just in my body but in my soul. I feel the pressure, the silence, the questions ...

A Warm Person but Misunderstood

There are moments in life when you feel unseen, even when you are right there. Sometimes, being quiet makes people assume you are cold or distant. But behind that calm silence is often a person full of warmth, love, and depth, just someone who expresses it differently. This is my story about being a warm person who is often misunderstood. The Quiet Side of Me Sometimes I feel like people do not really see who I am. I am a woman of few words, and maybe that is why I am often misunderstood. I do not talk much, but that does not mean I do not care. In fact, I care more than I show. I just express it quietly and in my own way. I am warm, but my warmth is gentle, not loud or demanding. I listen, I observe, and I try to understand people before I speak. But when I feel that I do not belong, or when I sense that I am not truly welcomed, something inside me quietly shuts down. The wall that has been with me for years slowly rises again, protecting me from being hurt. Silence Is My Safe Spa...
